Our stories are very similar. I too cannot have the the VSG because of GERD and a hiatal hernia.
My pre-op testing is 8/24. I have only shared what I am doing with those on a need to know basis as well and all others are told the hernia is finally being repaired (my hernia is being repaired at the same time I have the RNY).
I am not nervous....yet!

Hello Everyone! I feel like I am not making much progress getting ready for surgery where food changes are concerned. One of my biggest problems is I tend to not eat at all until later in the day. One of my to do items from the surgeons list is to start eating at least four times a day. Not easy. Am thinking I should just take a big plunge and start protein shakes only now.
I did kick coffee/tea this week (day four and no one in my house has been injured). Today I got on the elliptical for 15 minutes (not pretty).
